 Corporation 2020 presents new approaches to measuring the true costs of business and its obligation to society. Pavan Sukhdev lays out a sweeping new vision for tomorrow’s corporation: one that will increase social equity, decrease environmental risks, and still generate profit. Through a combination of internal changes in corporate governance and external regulations and policies, Corporation 2020 can become a reality—and it must, argues Sukhdev, if we are to avert catastrophic social imbalance and ecological harm.

From his insightful look into the history of the corporation to his thoughtful discussion of the steps needed to craft a better corporate model, Sukhdev offers a hopeful vision for the role of business in shaping a more equitable, sustainable future.

 

 Pavan Sukhdev is the Founder & CEO of GIST Advisory, an environmental consulting firm that helps governments and corporations value and manage their impacts on natural and human capital. A former banker at Deutsche Bank, he has been Special Adviser and Head of UNEP’s Green Economy Initiative, lead author of their Green Economy Report, and Study Leader for the G8+5 commissioned project on The Economics of Ecosystems and Biodiversity. He is the recipient of a McCluskey Fellowship at Yale University.
